He is a national treasure and it is so wonderful to see all these wonderful magicians in the video acknowledge his personal impact on their lives and how they work to emulate Juan's Master class on Mystery in all the magic they do.
Profound! This applies to any performing art, yet in other fields, I have never heard this described in such a way. Very inspiring, thank you for sharing!
The Seven Veils Of Mystery is one of my all time favorite clips of Juan. You should include it in The Tamariz movie. Maybe as an extra or as a tail after the credits…?
I heard some magic concepts named differently. Johnny Thompson called it : - Closing the doors Taking away possible explanations. Always do a short round- up at then end, where you explain in your words what happened. You can lie and distort the truth all you want.. tell your story. It will make people be unable to return to what actually happened.
Wonderful. I wonder if Ira Glass has studied the philosophy of Tamariz. I see some similarities in Glass's commentary on "do a lot of work". Tamariz's commentary in the Seven Veils of Mystery are broader than Glass's comments on learning how to do good work but I feel like they're tapping into the same wisdom and truth.
The most difficult question for me is how to feel love towards an audience in a world that is making one feel increasingly misanthropic. As angst ridden as that problem sounds, it is a real problem.
With all due respect, that's more of a problem in the magician as a person than it is one of the audience. Misanthropy is sterile. And certainly not a worldview that allows good performances.
If people are being misanthropic to you, then that’s your fault as a person. Don’t say that everyone is being misanthropic just because people don’t like you.
Erdnase23 I’m only 1 person, much too small of a test group to prove a point. And anyway, I was being like that because I hear this argument so much and it pisses me off- no, the audience aren’t being rude just because ‘that’s just how they are’, maybe if you stopped being a show-off and actually just behaved normally around other people they might start liking you and enjoying the magic more. I have nothing against you as a person, I don’t know you, but misanthropy during magic is much more likely due to the performer than the spectator. Unless you’re performing for some teenager who thinks he’s better than everyone else.
I love his broken English.. then again, as a Spaniard, it's like listening Spanish with English words. What a character! Thanks for sharing.

celestialDrive I never said this problem was simply a lifestyle choice.
